Last year (before I did the reinstall of this computer which lost me all
the bookmarks I thought I had saved) I found a great website which had a
huge selection of DIY boat improvement projects. One which I
particularly remember is for a wooden waste bin that you push into a
hole in a vertical surface and pivots about the bottom edge, so that you
can open it up as a kind of hopper and it closes again when you let go.

There were all kinds of articles describing ways to improve your boat
and things to make that would be useful.

Can I find this page again? Can I H*ll!

I'd be grateful for any pointers if somebody recognises the site I am
thinking of.

Maybe someone will remember. I am looking for plans for a 2 foot high dock
box. The dock box is not hard to build and I will probably just draw up my
own plans..............but if someone has plans for this it would also be
appreciated. ;-)

a 2 foot high dock box.

What's one of them?

A lockable box kept at the dock to store things you don't want to store on
the boat all the time. Our new marina allows boxes to be only 2 feet high
so our old dock box will not work. Plastic 2 foot high dock boxes sell for
$120+, fiberglass over $500.

I plan to build a 6 foot long wood box for under $40 in materials, perhaps 2
1/2 or 3 feet deep. It should not be too difficult to build.....I was just
wondering if anyone already had plans for such a project.
